Reviews
Write a ReviewI hired Paul to guide me through the ridiculously complicated permitting process in DC for repairing an existing exterior stairway in a historic district. Before engaging with Paul, the city was telling me I needed to demolish the stairs and rebuild them to code. I worked with an architect and it became clear that it was impossible to bring them up to code. Still, the city refused to back down and said the stairs couldn't be repaired. I then hired Paul, who recommended a number of improvements that would make the stairs safer without demolishing them, created a report, and then convinced the city with all of the relevant code citations. It became clear that Paul was far more knowledgeable than the city officials of their own regulations. While the process was still a labyrinth to navigate, Paul helped me overcome every hurdle that the city placed in front of me. I highly recommend Paul. I wouldn't have been able to get this work done without his expertise and his advocacy for me.
Thorough and knowledgeable, answered all questions and beyond, great experience.
Very prompt and professional. Would definitely recommend!
Paul is a great engineer for homeowners! He has been two my house twice on two individual projects and I will keep hiring him for future projects.
My house was built in 1950 and Paul identified that the wall that my contractor has removed is load bearing and the beam the contractor installed was not proper and not bearing any load. Paul also explained to me what my house was built with and why they are different than modern homes. He also gave me recommendations with respect to what to do and what not to do when dealing with the contractors and also how to save costs onward. I've learned so much from Paul and I feel very lucky to find him. I trust him and hired him again for other projects.

He was hired based on requirements from my township to confirm water run off would not fall into other properties due to introduction of new patio construction. He was very involved and on top or things and knowledgeable. He was successful in achieving my approvals with this town and I was able to proceed with my patio.
Expedient, professional and responsive service.
Paul is a very knowledgeable and experienced structural engineer. He helped us to understand the build structure of our home and how to approach some improvement projects the right way, as well as what to avoid. It was great peace of mind to have him come out before hiring contractors to begin projects because we now understand build code and safety requirements associated with our big ideas!
We have built or renovated several residential homes projects, including commercial as well. We interviewed several architects, and found â Paul Parsoneaultâ to have the experience, professionalism and enthusiasm that we were looking for. â Paul Parsoneaultâ is a design/architecture consulting firm, and from the very first meeting through the final walk through, we had been thoroughly impressed with him. â Paul Parsoneaultâ showed the rare ability to quickly and fairly resolve any disputes, whether with ourselves, the city inspectors, County permitting departments, the Condo Association, suppliers, or the sub-contractors. All communications are timely and very professional, knowledgeable, organized and well-established in the field. Look no further you want to work with this team! I would (and already have) recommend â Paul Parsoneaultâ and his consulting firm to anyone who is facing any construction project.
